Brachial plexus injuries

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2003
Severe trauma to the brachial plexus most often occurs in young adult men and is a crippling injury that requires management in a timely fashion for optimal functional recovery and pain control. The surgical management of such injuries is well established, and the techniques continue to evolve.

Microsurgery for Brachial Plexus Injury Before Versus After 6 Months of Age: Results of the Multicenter Treatment and Outcomes of Brachial Plexus Injury (TOBI) Study.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2019
BACKGROUND Infants with more severe brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) benefit from primary nerve surgery to improve function. The timing of the surgery, however, is controversial.

Evaluation of functional outcomes after brachial plexus injury

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2019
Major nerve injuries such as those of the brachial plexus present a significant challenge for both rehabilitation and evaluation of outcome. With these often complex and multi-faceted injuries, correct selection of outcome measures is important.

Prognostic value of needle electromyography in traumatic brachial plexus injury

Muscle and Nerve, 2019
In this study we aimed to determine whether needle electromyographic assessment of voluntary motor unit recruitment in traumatic brachial plexus injuries could predict spontaneous motor recovery.

The lived experience following free functioning muscle transfer for management of pan-brachial plexus injury: reflections from a long-term follow-up study

Disability and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Traumatic, pan-brachial plexus injuries result in major functional disability. Surgical advancements, such as free-functioning muscle transfers, are restoring physical capacity that was not achieved 3–4 decades ago.

Brachial plexus stretching injuries: Microcirculation of the brachial plexus

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 1995
This study was undertaken to investigate the pathogenesis of brachial plexus stretching injuries at an intensity level not severe enough to cause avulsion injury. While we performed traction on 64 forelegs of 32 rats, we evaluated changes in the blood flow in the extrinsic and intrinsic microvascular systems of the brachial plexus.

Brachial Plexus Injuries

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1990
Brachial plexus injuries are not uncommon in sports. Knowledge of anatomy and neurophysiology is important to permit accurate diagnosis and institution of compressive treatment. Traumatic injuries can be caused by traction and compression. Unusual conditions such as acute brachial neuritis may also occur.

Injuries to the brachial plexus

Surgery (Oxford), 2006
Abstract A synopsis of the assessment and treatment of injuries to the brachial plexus is given. There are two principal types of injury to the brachial plexus: one is due to violent trauma in the adult and the other is sustained during birth. Diagnosis is by anatomical knowledge plus imaging and laboratory investigations.

Injury to the Brachial Plexus

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1985
Trauma to the brachial plexus may have unfortunate physical, psychological, and social effects. Because this nerve network provides motor and sensory innervation to the arm and hand, an injury may result in functional impairment with concomitant loss in confidence and self-image.
